Funny Electrical Jokes

[mivey]

...the engineer asked the project lead electrician "How long do we need to stand these panels upright so that they can work right?" He was dead serious!!

...I was once asked by a mechanical engineer if, "when drilling and tapping a hole, do you drill it first or tap it first?"

I suspect the term engineer is being used loosely. Basic engineering and drafting courses would make these remote possibilities. In all fairness, I was surprised that some of the students in my senior level classes had made it that far. Not what I would call engineers, papers or not.

But it seems like some members on this forum never miss an oppurtunity to bash engineers. No professional, feeling secure in their knowledge, should feel necessary to do that. They probably drive big trucks too.......:grin:
